• Would it be possible to have a filter for how the “add_to_cart” shortcode?

    I am changing how that output looks as you can see here on this page: https://www.oxpal.com/guardians-to-the-wall.html

    In this case I add similar categories, and change the button depending on the product type/availability.
    But right now I have to hard-code that into the class-wc-shortcodes.php – and with every update I have to add my code again.

    It seems to me that many people would want to have the look personalized for their shop. Would it be possible to add a hook/filter there to make that easier?

    Is there another place where I can suggest those code changes?

    Hi. Are you using a child theme?

    I really like how you did your cart page. I’d really like to see how you coded that.

    The cart page where you check out? I didn’t do much with those default wooCommerce pages, except lots of little CSS tweaks. Glad it paid off, thanks ?? Other than that my page uses my own theme.

    If you mean the add-to-cart buttons on the blog posts, then I can post the code.

    No I was talking about your css on your checkout. Looks really nice. I guess I’ll have to experiment.

    The reason I asked about the child theme though was because if you are using a child theme you shouldn’t have to add the code back in after every update, (unless, of course, woocommerce breaks their own code. Which they do sometimes.)

    I achieved enlightenment! Thus allowing me to use filters ??

    I now first filter the price display, and then the cart button – each time attaching before or after my extra html. But I have to make sure in the code that it only affects the shortcode on the blog – not the woocommerce pages, and oddly also so it doesn’t affect the admin page.

    Thanks for the hint to the child-themes JukeBoxWhiz. It got me on the right track, even though it’s a different workaround in the end. Because Wocoomerce doesn’t offer templates for the shortcodes either.

    It’s a bit hacky – so would love if the admins of WooCommerce would add a clean way to change the shortcode look. I’m not the only one asking for it.
    But I’m happy now I don’t have to edit the code on every update ??
